AGENDA ITEM <br />Prepared By: J. Barnhart Reviewed By: RJO Approved By: RJO <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1. Purpose: To consider changes to the City Code related to State Law references, Building <br />Code appeals, and plumbing permitting. <br /> <br />2. Background: Building Official Scott Qualle has recommended a number of minor changes <br />to our code relative to the building code review and administration process. These changes are <br />generally housekeeping in nature. <br /> <br />Of note, the change strikes references to an internal board for the review of appeals to the <br />building code. That function, through our contract with MnSpect states that the city will use the <br />State Board of Appeals. <br /> <br />The plumbing permit language refers to the review of commercial plumbing permits. Currently, <br />plumbing permits for commercial projects are reviewed by the State. The intent with the change <br />is to have MnSpect complete that review, with proper accreditation. <br /> <br />3. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the changes as proposed. <br /> <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED <br />Motion to approve the ordinance as drafted. <br /> <br /> <br />Exhibits <br />A.
